The Salt Lake City Library is one of the most important architecture piece on the world. Is a new library which not only offers resources such as books but also has special spaces for events, excellent walks, striking visual of your surroundings, etc.


In this library you can see that the vertical circulation modules are located in ways that are visible and facilitate the flow of people. They have a great location, which means that they have an excellent approaching. Directions are also well emphasized and have a great character that evokes many visual experiences. The two most important elements of the vertical circulation are the spiral staircase and the crystal elevator.

The library also has a wide range of horizontal paths. Offering everything: from spacious halls and corridors, bridges that do not interrupt the tour at any point, to carrying pleasant spaces around the building. These spaces are accompanied with excellent visuals from almost every point of view. They connect the building with its surroundings in a very harmonious way. They are very adequate in size and they work well in either direction.

In my opinion, this building is very interesting, because the circulations define the character of a building, and in this particular, each movement is composed of elements that make it very pleasant route, from breathtaking views, broad areas, connection with their environment, and a close relationship between the interior and the outside the building.
